ONO shouted Hatton originally man.....
The only thing I'm not liking about Hatton, and I know its business, but he's traveling around putting cards on all over and has barely put on a card in Manchester for months and months aside from Crolla fighting at the Midland Hotel in some white collar event.. I find that really dissapointing to be honest, but i see what he's trying to do, picking up fans and fighters from all around for his shows and building something bigger than Manchester, just don't forget about the people.
On this fight, I have a number of a dude who I've been told to ring to get tickets, but I thought i'd just check Hennessey Sports site to see what thr deal was. Now on Micks site they don't even have the fight scheduled, never mind tickets available. Has Murray already left Hennessey I wonder, or maybe they just haven't updated the site yet... Can't seem to find any info on it but gonna keep digging.
John Murray is decent but he's very one dimensional, and he won't ever make it to the elite level. Does anyone remember the gift decision he got off Youssef Al Hamidi ? thats really worrying IMO, it shows he can't adapt.
I don't think anyone has ever preached that he'll be elite, he brings it though, and is a great fighter for the fans and has definate potential to entertain any boxing fan willing to watch. He has taken fights at short notice, Al Hamidi being a prime example, and has been close to going to hell and back John Duddy style due to it I think. He nearly went there with Munguia some time back when he had his debut in the States. Someone like Micky Ward was never elite, but he came to fight and gave (atleast me) some awesome fights that i'll never forget.
Not saying that mate im just saying he needs to learn some new dimension's, like moving his head. Use his footwork to create angles, use the jab, ETC.
He's far too one dimensional, and i think he could actually be a better fighter. If he learnt more of the craft, because he's a very sturdy strong guy, and he could be quite a force.
David Diaz vs John Murray would be a cracking fight, and a decent step up for John Murray.
